Re: Moving Char field to Numeric field right justified

Deepak (is that your first name?)

Why don't you give atoi() a try.  It's in the QC2LE binding directory, and
has been discussed repeatedly in the past (check the archives).

Moving Char field to Numeric field right justified






Hi

Can anybody suggest me the way to move a Char field (9 length) with
numeric
data to Numeric field (9 length) right justified?

e.g.

Input field
'123456((('

Output expected
000123456

Since output field is numeric, it will not show leading zeros. Using
arrays,
I moved the data in a numeric array but array does not allow me to move it
to a numeric field directly. E.g. MOVEA array numfld.

Please help.
